"Toyota insulted us by putting those "thank you ads" in White newspapers and refusing to address Black consumers in Black newspapers,"

DEAR BLACK AMERICA 2011 AND BEYOND
Black people need to sit down and be quiet. It is a shame and an embarrassment to be a black person because everytime you look around black people are crying, and whining because someone hurt their feelings or insulted their infantile intellect:

You did not thank me", "you put the word "negro" on the census form", you said, "those folks" or you "insulted us"

According to The Sentinel Online Newspaper they represent "a network of 200 Black publishers which represents over 19.8 million weekly readers, approximately half of America's Black population" while in the same breath professing to be:"

We are "tried, true, and trusted when it comes to Black people in America," "We are the gatekeepers for reaching Black people.

We just can't stand by and let Toyota disrespect our people that way." I don't think that our publishers will break rank with me, after all we're smarter than that.

Now here is where it really undermines the assertion that African Americans are "smarter than that."

The Sentinel Online Newspaper proclam with justification that "Black Consumers Spent $2.2 Billion with Toyota, last year" but how smart was that when you consider that:

We have 1.1 million African Americans with advance degrees, plus a plethora of African American ministers/leaders, senators, congressman, representatives, councilmen and alderman but yet, African Americans have no verifiable evidence of a technology, infrastructure or industry.

African American organizations, political leaders and African American ministers/leaders concertedly lack the collective intelligence to create a foundation of inclusion for the survival of African Americans.

How smart is that?

Get smart for real black America because if we have spent 2.2 billion dollars last year with the Japanese then be smart enough to spend that same money to build your own car lots, canneries, maufactoring plants, industries, infrastructures, schools and technologies.

The title to this Toyota story should be: A fool and his money will soon part ways.
